 38720>The Root
 
 
 
 One, two, three, four....
 
 
 
 She done worked a root.
 
 Done worked a root that will not be reversed
 
 Then I go on, go on my role in her play with no rehearsal
 
 Said, I left my mojo
 
 Left my mojo in my favorite suit...(yes I did, yeah)
 
 She left a stain, left a dirty stain in my heart, I can't refute.
 
 
 
 She done worked a root!
 
 
 
 (Chorus)
 
 In the name of love and war took my shield and sword
 
 From the pit of the bottom, that knows no floor
 
 Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine.
 
 From the Alpha to creation, to the end of all time.
 
 
 
 Said I went, Said I went, Said I went to the doctor.
 
 The man told me there ain't nothin' wrong with me
 
 But I beg to differ, I been feelin this pain for much too long
 
 I feel like my soul is empty
 
 My blood is cold and I can't feel my legs
 
 I need someone to hold me.
 
 Bring me back to life b4 I'm dead.
 
 
 
 She done worked a root...root...rooooot.
 
 
 
 (Chorus)
 
 
 
 adlibs
 
 
 
 I feel my soul is empty
 
 My blood is cold and I can't feel my legs,
 
 I need someone to hold me
 
 Bring me back to life before' I'm dead..
 
 
 
 She done worked a Root.
 
 
 
 5times
 
 In the name of love and war took my shield and sword
 
 From the pit of the bottom, that knows no floor
 
 Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine.
 
 From the Alpha to creation, to the...
 
 
 
 To the end of all Time!!
 
 
 
 Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine.
 
 From the Alpha to creation, to the END OF ALL TIME!
